I have always said: if the mood strikes you, get up and redecorate. Sure, sure, it's flippant, but the impulse to change has to be honored then and there. Otherwise, what could be a new, exciting room that fulfills your inner vision, will end up being another faded idea and yet another to-do on a long list of never-ending to-dos. A simple, economical way of making the most impact on a room usually has little to do with the furniture, or even the paint.
It boggles the mind how a simple light fixture can change everything. Once you change the quality and intensity of light, you change a room forever. How the light plays off the walls, the ceiling and all the visible furniture pieces and decorations is crucial to how that room is perceived by the human eye. Now, don't be a nervous Nelly, just take a deep breath and start small. The best way and the smallest way is putting up a lovely pendant light.
Hanging from a thin wire, a pendant light is a terribly versatile fixture. It doesn't have to be bolted to a certain area. It can be adjusted, hanging low, close to sitting areas, or it can hang higher, casting more light on the entire room. Moreover, you can choose the appropriate cover, determining the color of the light and even how much light is shed on the room.
If you're confused, just take a minute and head for your local Starbucks. Order your non-fat latte and as you make your way to the bar to pick it up, you will invariably see the glory of a well-used pendant light. Often, the King of Coffee uses closed pendants, playing on the color of the cover (usually blue or green). Sometimes, they use an open pendant cover, casting a lovely halogen glow on the polished wood bar. All in all, you can't go wrong.
You may actually decide to invest in an espresso machine while you're at it. The ability to change your home, or at least any room in your home, lies dormant in your hands. Get up, be inspired and make a change. The smallest change can make the biggest impact and the selection of pendant lighting fixtures is impressive. Mix and match and enjoy the new look. - 15252
